The message read; "Any information in in possession relative to the Ward case is at your disposal. Will give i nil tin fullest co-operation in solving this alleged blackmail plot." Governor Miller has denied any intent to interfere in the rase by appointing a special deputy to supercede the Westchester authorities whose earlier apathy resulted In an inquiry by the Grand Jury which Is considering what evidence there is against Ward. When Mr.

McCarthy was reminded that his message to the Governor referred to an "alleged blackmail plot" and was asked If Ins meant he did not believe such a plot existed, he declined to answer, sayi.ii; he would explain later. Subpenas were issued yesterday for George S. Ward, head of the Ward Baking Company and father of the slayer; Ralph Ward, a brother; Mrs. N.

Mutton, close friend and neighbor of Ward. In his plea to the courts for a reduction of Cunningham's bail from to $2, 500 Mr. McCarthy declared that If his client were freed he would be able to locate and produce the elusive Charley Rogers and Jo" Jackson, for whom detectives have been seurchlng ever since Cunningham's statement that the two were with Clarence Peters when he was killed by Ward. According to the attorney, both Rogers and Jackson actually exist, despite the more or less skeptical view of the authorities, hut they are afraid to present themselves before the Westchester officials fnr fear they will receive the same treatment Cunningham, wlio was locked up with disconcerting promptness after his original statement to Sheriff George J.

Washington, June 10 In the event of the death of Premier Lenine, which has been reported as imminent, Washington expects civil war in Russia, with Trotzky heading a militarist movement that will rend (he whole country. The Minister of War, it is believed, will break with Tchitcherin, who is not nearly so radical as Trotzkv. Trotzky is expected to make his initial onslaught on Poland, 2 he has indicated he is inclined to do. With an army of 700,000 behind him, a success in this would place him, temporarily at least, in supreme command of the entire situation. Officials here have already accepted Lenine's incapacity as a fact, and, in view of his death, which seems probable, are now engaged in figuring out just what may happen as a result, i recognized mat tne position of Trotzky is exceptionally strong.

Trotzky's personal inclination is known as being all for a further military adventure, probably in the direction or roiana.

COMESMATE Opposition Expected on Failure of Powers to Ratify Pact. F.agle Bureau.

00 1 Colorado Hulldlng. Fly SI' DAM. Washington, June 10 With the re-: porting out of the Navy Department appropriation bill fnr the fiscal year of from the Committee on Appropriations this afternoon, the Senate will proceed on Tuesday next tem- porarily to lay aside the tariff and de- vote Its attention to providing suit- aide funds for the American naval establishment for the coming year. I It is expected that the opposition to this bill will be based upon the failure of a single one of the Towers, other than this Government, to ratify the Treaty on Limitation of Naval Armament signed last February, and on which this measure Is based. Appropriations of $294,275,24 1 are made in the measure reported out this afternoon.

This represents a net increase of over the House bill, but JI31.2ll.000 less than requested by the Xay Department, $10,000, IOO for Itiiilding. The sum of $10,000,000 allowed for Navy building, which may appear somewhat curious to those who expected no new construction under the Arms Conference treaties. Is explained as being the minimum difference between the amount required for ordnance, construction and machinery und the amount available under remaining balances, even after deferring all possible payments. This $1 0,000,000 is required, according to the committee, in order, to ineiM the arrangements of the Washington Conference, which contemplated the completion among other Items, of the drendnoiigh'ifl Colorado and West Virginia. While the financial proWslons of the bill as reported are of great Interest, it Is expected that the most spectacular feature of the debate In the Senate will be comment on the failure of any of the other four great powers to have ratified the Washington naval treaty.

The crux of the situation is admitted here to be the position of France. Whatever technical explanations ate advanced for delay by Great Britain, Italy and Japan, there Is not much question that these three governments sre waiting to see what France will do' before taking action themselves. Officials of this Government have heard vague intimations that France will Insist upon reservations us to the Naval treaty, but diplomatic efforts lo ascertain the exact intention of Premier Polncare's Government, have failed. One of the chief objections c.f France to the 6-5-3 ratio. It now appears.

Is the fact that this places Italian naval strength practically on a par with that of France. There never was the slightest hesitation. It is belivr pointed out. on the part of Premier ilrland at Washington to accept this position. The question was discussed at the very outset and Brland Interoosod no rejoinder to this proposition of Italo-French equality.

One of th- reasons for his fall was, of course, the loss of prestige suffered by France at Washington, and It may he thHt Premier olncare is therefore prepared to risk a basic revision of the nnval treaty, Any reservation by France that would alter the established latins of naval strength would amount to an amendment and would require resubmission of the treaty to the other Interested governments for their approval. Waiting fur FYaiKT to Aid. It Is understood here that Italy and Great Britain, and probably Japan, have all expressed their intention to ratify this agreement us soon as France shows her hand, but not before. It is said on good authoiitv that the French Government, having observed the Interpretative reservation tacked onto the treaty by the United States Senate, intend to stale that France will observe the terms of this compact as long as it suits her vital interests to do so, and no longer. Officials here, on the other hand, believe that there Is a profound resi- due of common sense and shrewdness, even among French politicians, and it I cannot be Imagined that France would risk permanent alienation of American sympathies to the extent of practically destroying the immense work accomplished at the Washington discussions FLYINGBOAtWITH 4 ABOARD, WRECKED Ons Passenger Slightly Hurt in Mishap on River.

Unanimity Among Allies Is Lacking, International Financiers Tell Reparations Commission See No Hope of Final Settlement of War Debt Question at Present, but Are Ready to Resume Study.

(By the. Associated Press.) Paris. June 10 Complete agreement among the Allies on reparations, a solvent Germany and settlement once for all of the full reparations debt, the International bankers committee find In their report to the Reparations Commission, are essential to the success of an international loan to Germany. In view of the fact that these conditions are lacking and because of the objections of France to a revision of the total reparations due from Germany, the committee have decided to suspend their study of the question, though confident that a substantial loan to Germany could be floated if these conditions were fulfilled, and they hold themselves ready to resume consideration of the question on the unanimous invitation of the Reparations Commission. committee recognize that there is a certain dependency of a reparation sfttlement upon the question of the Ir.ler-Allied war debts, which Is outs de of the committee's Jurisdiction, and they point out the danger of a collapse of German credit if the negotiations for a settlement are too long delnyed.

A short term interim loan, however, could be made, which would remove that danger. But a short term rma't loan, it is said, would be of no benefit, to certain of the Allies, who would receive little or none of the proceeds'. French Delegate Dissents. The French delegate, Charles 9er gent, dissented from the report, say lnir he was unable to accept any re duction In German liability under the Treaty of Versailles, or any diminution whatever of France's rights under the treaty. The members of the committee derided that they could not usefully continue their study, as they were extremely anxious that no action of theirs should injure the interests of France, and that if France did not at the present time desire any inquiry Into the more, general conditions nec pssary fpr re-establishing of Ger many's external crenu, me committee did not feel Justified In undertaking that inquiry.

The committee, observes that an essential condition of an external loan pt nv time Is thit the public must feel that Germany, Is making real ami substantial efforts to place her finances upon a stable basis, and that a second ssential consideration Is removal of the uncertainty regarding the repara tions obligations. American Conditions. The committee had before it a state-tnent to the effect that American hankers and investors could be in terested in a substantial' degree in the j.urchase of German obligations only if a further fundamental were satisfied namely, that such a loan should be at the unanimous request and for the benefit of the Allied nations. Among the fundamental conditions of American participation was unan lmity among the lenders as well as the establishment of the credit of the borrower. The report touches upon the inter-Allied debts as being oulside the com-netence of the committee, and that subject could not be discussed.

But the fact could not be ignored tnat these debts were bound to be discussed as among the factors in the problem of securing that desirable Allied agreement which also was one of the essential conditions of a loan to Germany.

Apartment houses and other structures standing on the brink of the sewer cave-in on Fort Hamilton Parkway, between 6(ith and 61st are In imminent danger. Should there come, a heavy rain storm and the weuther bureau forecasted rain for today nothing could save these buildings from slipping Into the ugly hole. This was the opinion of engineers last night, and in view of the navlty of the situation, more than 25 men. directed by boro engineers, wbrked late into the night j'esterday in the hope of putting Into place sufficient shoring before rain fill to hold the hanks of the gully.

Pay Debt of Gratitude. The platonlc affection of a man aged 70 for a woman of 45, culminated tn the County Court yesterday, when Judge Reuben L. Haskell signed an order permitting the man to adopt the woman as his daughter. Thomas F. Rockford, who lives at 662 2d is now the legal father of Emma Lydia Bush, who for the past seven years has lived at the same address.

The adoption proceedings are the fulfillment of a debt of gratitude from the man to the woman. Seven years ago. Rockford told the court, his wife left him. leaving him alone on the brink of old age. Miss Bush found him.

a sick and broken man. For six months she nursed him and finally brought him back to health. Then she took charge of his business affairs. Xow in his 71st year, Rockford said that he is without wife or child and feels he must leave a legal heir. if Lenine Dies; to Attack Poland cow, his strongest move would be a military offensive, which would awaken the spirit of the army and round up much national sentiment behind his leadership.

The Administration is taking a long view of the Russian situation, and whatever fears are held concerning Trotzky's possible military intentions, they are minimized as a last desperate expedient. As far as the international situation is concerned, it is felt in the highest quarters that the worst that can happen is a series of raids on states adjacent to Soviet Russia, which will have no other effect thnn to line up most of Europe against Russia. Furthermore and this is the most significant aspect of the whole affair it is believed that internal dissension of the most serious character is certain to arise at Moscow between the various Soviet factions, which have hitherto been held together by nothing except the dominating personality of Lenine. While Europe and the United States have striven in their own ways to effect some working solution of the Russian question, the illness or death of Lenine may prove the touchstone which will either speedily resolve the various elements or lead to abrupt dissolution. 0 SUPER-INTELLIGENCE TESTS.

N. H. HEAD NURSE QUITS HOSPITAL AFTER HER HAIR IS SNIPPED OFF Mystery in Clipping of Tresses. Not Fired, But Resignation Was Gladly Accepted.

The mystery of the missing golden tresses clipped from the shapely head of Miss Josephine Riley, head nurse of the Brownsville and East New York Hospital while she slept in her room in the dormitory between Friday night and Saturday morning has not yet been solved, despite the efforts of Police Detective Hurry Beck and a swarm of sympathetic amateur detectives. The chances of a solution of this baffling mystery became more remote yesterday when Miss Riley packed her duds and ceased to he head nurse of the hospital by marching peremptorily out of the building. "Even though 1 am gone from here," Faid Miss Riley, between farewells to her faithful friends, "the search for the culprit will not cease. I will find out who put off one of my braids while I was asleep and then well, you will see what 1 will do." Miss Elizabeth R. Nanes, superintendent of the hospital, told The Eagle that Miss Riley's leave-taking was not the result of the hair-clipping story, but due to friction between Miss Riley and some other nurses in the hospital.

"Miss Riley is a highly efficient and capable nurse," said Miss Nanes, "but her temperament did not harmonize with that of some other nurses and as discipline in the hospital staff is next in importance to the expertness of the staff, her leaving has relieved a most embarrassing situation." "I was not discharged," said Miss Riley to The Eagle. "Please make that clear. There was nothing Miss Nanes could discharge me for, artd there is no reflection whatever on my career as a nurse. As supervising nurse I was responsible for the discipline and yet when the time came to do my duty In that respect my action did not meet with the wholehearted support and approval from thoRe above me that it should have been accorded. "And so, of course, there was nothing left-for me to do but pack up and leave, for my reputation as nurse is worth a great deal more thaji any position In any hospital and my standing in the profession must not be inspired by influences that seek to interfere with efficiency.

There is no room in the nursing profession for favoritism. There is only one way, and that Is the right way. "I have done my duty as well as I know how and it seems unfortunate that my efforts should have failed to receive the co-operation to which they were entitled in the interest of et-floiency. That, after all. is the highest goal of hospital work.

I could not be head nurse and a figurehead, too, so there you have the whole story. "But why any crazy person should want to cut off part of my hair is more th'an I can understand. The person gains nothing by it, while I lost part of my hair and my feelings are very much hurt." LONDON FEARS FOR SAFETY OF PRINCE OF WALES IN EGYPT London. June 10 There is much apprehension here concerning the safety of the Prince of Wales, who arrived yesterday at Cairo. Those who are fearful point to the anti-English feeling in Egypt and the recent assesslnations of foreigners.

The Reparations Commission, by voting three to one to the effect that the committee of bankers should discuss all questions which might have a bearing upon the gener-al re-estahllsh-ment of German credit, Mr. Morgan said, had shown that the first condition, namely, unanimity, had not been met. Official French government statements, made, while the bankers were deliberating, to the effect that they were attempting to decrease the German debt, he declared, and that this could not he tolerated by the French government, had served to convince the. bankers that the second condition, the establishment of Germany's crdit.

He declared, however, that the committee had never thought that It had any power to pass upon the sums owing hv the German government' but merely that it had been requested to advise the Reparations Commission as to the basis upon which Germany could raise a loan. He said- there had been no discussion of amounts of reparations but only of a possible arrangement of the annual payments, and these, either In cash or in kind, were only method whereby Germany could affect payment of her just debts.
